I'm not sure about this one. Are you talking about like this year?
Answer:
The profit maximizing output level declines by 2.5 units and the price rises by $100.
Explanation:
In a monopoly market the inverse demand curve is given as,
P = 1,200 - 40Q
The marginal cost of production of the last unit is $200.
The total revenue is
= 
= 
The marginal revenue of the last unit is
= 
= 1,200 - 80Q
At equilibrium the marginal revenue is equal to marginal price,
MR = MC
1,200 - 80Q = 200
80Q = 1,000
Q = 12.5
Putting the value of Q in the inverse demand function,
P = 
P = $700
Now, if the marginal cost rises to $400,
At equilibrium the marginal revenue is equal to marginal price,
MR = MC
1,200 - 80Q = 400
80Q = 800
Q = 10
Putting the value of Q in the inverse demand function,
P = 
P = $800
Answer:
The correct answer is $2,610.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-
We can calculate the the direct labor cost by using following formula:-
Direct labor hour required= Estimated production × Direct labor hour
= 870 × 1÷4 =217.5 hours
Direct labor cost = Direct required labor hour × Rate of labor per hour
= 217.5 hours × $12
= $2,610
According to the analysis, $2,610 is the total amount to be budgeted for direct labor.
